A Florida Sheriff's Office delivered a chilling final message to resident in Taylor County, Tallahassee as Hurricane Helene approached the area. The area which is expected to be hit hardest the Category 4 storm has asked residents who chose not to evacuate to write their personal information in permanent ink on their body so they can be identified.

Gov. Ron DeSantis urged Floridians Wednesday afternoon to finish preparations for Hurricane Helene’s landfall along the Big Bend on Thursday night, emphasizing the unprecedented damage tree debris could cause in Tallahassee.
